The Torpedo Captor X SE from Two Notes is a compact and portable reactive load box, amp attenuator, miked cab simulator, IR loader, and stereo expander, which gives you unprecedented control over your guitar’s tone at home or onstage. Use the Torpedo Captor X SE to hit your amp with the optimal load for coaxing out its sweetest tone, then adjust the volume according to your playing situation. This is great for practicing with your true tone without driving your neighbors crazy or matching your volume to the size of a venue, so you don’t blow out the audience’s ears. Torpedo Captor X SE is also packed with creative bells and whistles that expand its functionality. Shape your tone in real time right from your laptop, mobile device, MIDI controller, or the USB Torpedo Remote. And tap into Torpedo Captor X SE’s vast collection of virtual cabinets, mic combinations, and rooms for endless creative possibilities. Tired of lugging around a heavy cab to gig after gig? Guitarists understand. So, ditch it, and patch directly into a live mixing console, portable PA, or audio interface, and have your custom tones always at the ready. On top of that, the Torpedo Captor X SE includes an excellent selection of signal processors to get your guitar tone just right.
Expansive control options
Torpedo Captor X SE provides a handful of ways to control its parameters, like taking command with your laptop, iOS, or Android mobile device, via MIDI, or with the USB Torpedo Remote. Select from 128 presets, or customize your own tones by combining Torpedo Captor X SE’s 32 meticulously modeled virtual cabinets, with eight microphone setups per cabinet and eight room simulations. Take a deeper dive with Torpedo Captor X SE’s onboard effects, including a stereo doubler, stereo reverb, aural enhancer, voicing controls, and a noise gate. And you can output your signal with one of three routing options: stereo, dual mono, and dry/wet.
Wall of Sound III plug-in for sonic flexibility after recording
With the Torpedo Captor X SE, you have access to the Wall of Sound III plug-in with additional cab sims, covering everything from compact speakers to full stacks. Record your amplifier through the Torpedo Captor to your DAW while bypassing the built-in speaker simulation, then use the Wall of Sound III plug-in to fine-tune the speaker simulation with control over virtual microphone type, mic placement, and more. You’ll have more control over your tone during mixdown.
